I can help. What do you want done?
Got your PM and responded.
Goal is to lower the height of the seat and to move them inboard toward teh center console more. Aftermarket seats installed on OEM sliders.
1) The seat mounting holes do not match the sliders (which mount OEM front to back), They are closer together widthwise than the slider spacing. I have a flat steel bar running across the sliders and it is currently bolted to the sliders. I want to get rid of the need for the height of the nut.
2) The bracket for the seat belt may need to be cut and extended for the seat to more more inboard.
3) The mechanism for adjusting the sliders on their tracks actually sticks up. The OEM seats were hollow in this area, the aftermarket seats are flush. I need to either cut holes in the bottom of the seats or redesign the mechanism so it is below the bottom of the seat.
I currently have the seat on spacers between the steel bar and the seat to clear the nut holding the steel bar to the sliders and to provide needed space for the slider mechanism. By getting rid of the need for spacers, it should drop the seat height a good inch. Trying to make more headroom. I need to be able to get a helmet on in the car.
Point 3 is what has me wide awake at 1:30AM trying to figure out a solution in my head.
